Can anyone pull me out of spawn when server is back? I just need some basic supplies, I will pay you back somehow I promise.

On my way out, the few times I needed it, I found wheat+tree visible from roughly 500,500.
Looked like somebody (not me) kept this alive for at least some time I was near spawn.
Once met somebody with diamond sword killing me there, so watch it.
It's not an unknown location to grievers or others just liking to kill.

I'm not far out currently, I could check spawn out to see how it looks like.
Perhaps visit 2k2k as well, never been there.

edit: as diversion, I could build something on the actual 2k2k location of the map.
edit2: pity, no updates on twitter for the crash

I'm aware that most of the terrain around 0.0 is old, so how long is "far enough"

You'll need to head out further than 5k. The nether is relatively unexplored in most places other than the highways, since people were too busy rushing back into the overworld to concentrate on farming other stuff.

Of any minecraft server I've been on, 2b2t has to be my favorite. The rich culture and history that is displayed with some simple exploration is amazing, and there is always something new to find. And indeed, somehow in all of the chaos, beauty remains in the most unlikely places, and a community of nomads and visitors shapes the landscape each in their own way.
